In the Soap Rehab Lab

I took some pictures in the Soap Rehab "lab" to very briefly show part of the process of soapmaking. Just a little peek inside my workspace. Here are the melted oils in the pot, cooling down to the correct temperature. The lye water, also cooling (thermometer nearby to test the temperature) waiting to join forces with the oils to saponify and make amazing soap. And soap in the mold, setting up, beginning the curing process. Now that it's had time to cure, this particular batch is cut and ready to use!
